"The Hurricanes currently have 31 commitments, which is inflating their recruiting class overall ranking to much higher than the true talent level.

Depending on the recruiting service, between 61 and 78 percent of Miami's recruits are rated three stars or fewer. That's way out of whack with what is seen with the other programs with a top recruiting classes.

According to Scout.com and 247Sports.com, Miami by far the lowest average star rating per prospect of any top-15 ranked class. (Note: Scout and 247 Sports used because Rivals.com was unavailable.)

Essentially, Miami's class is rated highly because of quantity, not quality. No, Miami is not competing with the likes of Florida and Florida State for the top in-state talent

Miami is not acquiring the level of talent needed to compete with Florida and Florida State (see above). But the 'Canes do need to stay in the "Big Three" in the state, at least in the collective mind of recruits. That means not becoming completely irrelevant and slipping to the level of a USF or a UCF.

Through one year, Golden is managing to out-recruit USF and UCF by a wide margin. That will only get more difficult in the coming years with UCF joining the Big East and the coming NCAA sanctions. But with this enormous class, Miami could have the talent to hold them off both in-state start ups on the trail during the down period.

And assuming the sanctions don't last too long, Miami could bounce back strong in, say, 2016 or 2017."

Hopefully Golden can somehow get these two stars to play with all their five stars

UCF is going to receive serious sanctions. Their AD Tribble resigned because he was aware of benefits and condone it THey're getting LOIC from NCAA. Golden will develop these players to their fullest potential
